Hi Anglo Traction,
 
Thanks for your support with this issue, now my engines works perfectly and starts everytime
 
The problem was that in the past someone had oiled/greased the bearings on the inside of the clutch assembly.
 
This is how i fixed the issue.
 
1. Fig. 1 shows the assembled engine.

2. Fig. 2 remove the ouside casing by removing the 3 bolts (1 on the top of the casing, 1 bottom right and 1 bottom left).

3. Fig. 3 remove the mesh cover by removing the 2 small bolts.

4. Fig 4 remove the cluch plate.
 
Tip: Place small container under the clutch plate to catch any falling bearings
 

Fig. 4
 
Clean bearing, spindle, clutch plate and housing. I used soft detergent to clean bearings, spindle and cluch plate. I used alcohol top clean out the housing.
 
Once all parts are dry, reassemble.
 
Whoopee, now my engine starts first time, everytime
 
Sounds so good to turn the fly wheel and hear the bearings drop into place.
 
Thanks again to Anglo Traction for his expert help and guidance.
 
Regards,
Rob
